Penthouse

Aria’s latest creation features one of Brisbane’s most luxurious penthouses, complete with access to amenities you would expect to find in the world’s finest five-star hotels.

Designed by esteemed architects, Elenberg Fraser, Oxley & Stirling is nestled on a picturesque bend of the Brisbane River at South Brisbane. The building and its penthouse enjoy remarkable views across the CBD, South Bank, Kangaroo Point Cliffs and City Botanic Gardens. Oxley & Stirling has been recognised at the 2018 Queensland Architecture Awards, winning a State Award for Residential Architecture in the Multiple Housing category. Held annually by the Australian Institute of Architects, 300 entrants were shortlisted down to 78 projects for the state honours this year.

The building employs the latest innovations in passive environmental design and sustainability including high-performance, emerald green double glazing and feature curved glass corners. The unique design allows for each residence to extend past the next, offering uninterrupted panoramic views of the river and city skyline, while maximising privacy to each apartment. Featuring hotel-style facilities available to all residents, including a rooftop lap pool, reflection pond with sunken seating, outdoor dining and barbecue areas, private dining room, private theatre room, gymnasium, library and a wine cellar, Oxley & Stirling takes resort-style living to new heights of vertical living.

Comprised mostly of one and two-bedroom apartments, the building’s bespoke penthouse features everything you would find in a high-end custom designed home. The three expansive bedrooms are all ensuited and take advantage of river and cityscape views. The master bedroom alone is the size of most normal apartments and features its own private balcony, lounge area, built-in study, walk-in robe and lavish bathroom with a soaking tub, waterfall shower and carved stone vanity basins.

A 3.5 metre high living room ceiling bathes the penthouse with natural light and extends out to an impressive riverfront balcony terrace with built in barbecue. Internally, the slate walls are lined with custom commissioned triptych by renowned artist Alessandro Ljubicic and a climate-controlled glass wine cellar. A separate media room offers a more intimate setting. The penthouse features two kitchens, one for entertaining and another for catering with both delivering a stylish and sophisticated material palette and Wolf, Gaggenau, Pitt and Subzero appliances throughout.
